Infinity Holidays has reported strong growth in Hong Kong sales, with bookings up 61 per cent year-on-year as Australian travellers return to the destination for standalone holidays, stopovers and cruise extensions.
The wholesaler shared the figures at a Infinity Holidays x Hong Kong Tourism Board lunch in Sydney today, attended by a select group of travel agents and media.
Infinity Holidays Senior National Business Development Manager Adam Dickson said the average booking lead time for Hong Kong was currently 115 days, remaining relatively consistent with the 119-day average recorded at the same time last year.

The destination’s growth has been supported by competitive hotel rates, new packages and demand from travellers combining Hong Kong with destinations including Japan and Europe.
Infinity Holidays currently offers around 650 accommodation options across Hong Kong, drawn from its wider portfolio of approximately 350,000 properties worldwide. Around 150,000 of the company’s global properties are directly contracted, allowing it to negotiate exclusive rates, added extras and stronger commission opportunities for agents.
Dickson described Infinity Holidays as a “one-stop shop” for FIT clients, with transfers, attractions, activities and private touring available alongside accommodation.
“We only work within the industry with travel professionals,” he said. “We don’t sell to consumers, so we design a product directed towards selling agents and the Australian and New Zealand traveller.”
Hong Kong Tourism Board’s Karen Pritchard highlighted the destination’s combination of traditional and contemporary experiences, along with its dining, shopping, events and outdoor attractions.
“Every consumer wants to live and travel like a local, and we believe Hong Kong is the right place for that,” Pritchard said.
She said Hong Kong differentiated itself through its variety, energy and contrasts, from neon-lit streets, markets and festivals to hiking, beaches, boat trips and more than 260 islands.
The city’s dining scene remains a major drawcard, with 77 Michelin-starred restaurants ranging from inexpensive noodle shops to high-end dining experiences.
“A Michelin star doesn’t have a price tag,” Pritchard said. “It could be a noodle soup for $10 or it could be a $500-a-head experience. It’s all about the experience and the quality of that dining.”
Pritchard also highlighted the Kai Tak Sports Park, which opened in 2025 and features a 50,000-seat stadium with a retractable roof. The new precinct is expected to strengthen Hong Kong’s ability to attract major sporting and entertainment events.
Fly-cruise travel is another priority for the tourism board, with Hong Kong positioned as a pre or post-cruise stay for itineraries travelling onwards to Japan and Southeast Asia.
Infinity Holidays Product Manager Nicolas Hawksley showcased several packages developed for the wholesaler’s current Hong Kong campaign. These combine popular hotels with attractions including harbour cruises, private sightseeing, food tours and Hong Kong Disneyland.
Hong Kong Disneyland remains popular with both families and couples. Infinity Holidays has regained a direct contract with the resort and is promoting Disney Explorers Lodge, including stay-and-pay offers across selected dates through to the end of March.
Other featured properties include Harbour Grand Hong Kong, Hotel Alexandra and The Kowloon Hotel, with selected offers providing benefits such as complimentary room upgrades, late check-outs, dining credits and discounts of up to 25 per cent.
Infinity Holidays does not require a deposit when a booking is made, with payment generally due 15 days before the first service. The wholesaler does not levy its own amendment or cancellation fees, although individual supplier conditions still apply. Agents can also apply for a weekly direct-debit account as an alternative to credit card payments.
To support the current campaign, Infinity Holidays is offering a three-night stay at Hotel Alexandra, including breakfast, to the agent who sells the most Hong Kong product between 31 August and 30 September 2026.
